Over the span of one week Bart will give you an insight into his creative process, from concept to finish, teaching the participants about material development, narrative, photography, sound and video-editing.
The course will concentrate on exploring different types of Future Textiles. During the week you will manipulate the characters of textile by experimenting with a variety of material and techniques. A playful approach to material is at heart of this process, working towards an innovative visual for your own portfolio.
